An Analysis of the Impact of DNS-Based Authentication on Wireless Network Security

This paper investigates the effect of DNS-primarily based authentication on wireless network safety. DNS-primarily based authentication is used to authenticate consumer credentials on Wi-Fi networks, generally primarily based upon the Dynamic Host Configuration Protocol (DHCP). The research specializes in checking out the authentication system via numerous simulations, reading the performance and security of the authentication manner. Effects from such studies monitor that the usage of DNS-based total authentication can improve the safety of a Wi-Fi community, specifically in mitigating man-in-the-center assaults. In addition, analysis shows that DNS-based authentication concurrently improves network overall performance using reducing the fee of authentication, decreasing latency, and increasing the scalability of the authentication process. This research suggests that universal, DNS-based authentication is a precious tool to enhance the security of Wi-Fi networks.
